HOUSTON — Jerome Williams wants to be a starter for the Angels next season.

Williams kept on making his case Sunday, winning a third straight start for the first time since April 2004 as the Angels beat Houston, 2-1, to send the Astros to their 98th loss.

Houston, a big league-worst 51-98, is on the verge of becoming the first major league team to reach triple figures in losses in three consecutive seasons since Kansas City from 2004-06. The Astros were 56-106 in 2011 and dropped to 55-107 last year, their final year in the National League.
